Chapter 15: Surprise Attack

At this time, Tie Li set up a feast in the Zhengda tent and celebrated with the generals and colonels in the army. It is said that the county commander of Huaixian County took the initiative to send a messenger to ask for surrender today, and easily won a county, no wonder Tie Li was so eager to set up a celebration banquet. I only heard one person get up and toast him: "The last general, General He, took Huai County without a single soldier, and if it continues like this, even if it is to sweep Luoyang, it is unknown!" ”

Tie Li Twisted a smile: "Those who know the times are Junjie, and Qiu Wu is also a person who understands." It's just that little Huaiwu, I wanted him to retreat from the difficulty, but I didn't expect to dare to block the car with my mantis arm, which really surprised me. ”

The man said: "A mere Huaiwu General He Lao bothered, tomorrow the army will cross the border, and it will be trampled flat!" ”

"That's it, the general can wipe out its Huaiwu with a finger, and after tomorrow, then Sun Rong will only regret it on the Huangquan Road!" Someone immediately chimed in.

"The general conquered many counties for Yu Gong, and in the future, he will be rewarded for his merits and deeds, and at least he will get a founding duke! The last general congratulates General in advance! As soon as the cup was finished, another person got up to toast. Tie Li even smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into a slit, and he and everyone exchanged respects back and forth, and the atmosphere was so lively.

The tent was full of people and people, and suddenly, the outside of the tent, which was supposed to be relatively quiet, became extremely noisy, and a moment later the sentry was heard shouting, "There are assassins!" There are assassins! Tie Li and the others hurriedly checked the account, only to see that the camp tent was surrounded by black-clothed people, who were slaughtering his soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables. Seeing that the situation was not good, the general next to him hurriedly shouted: "Protect the general!" Protect the General! Before the words fell, a group of black-clothed people had already arrived, and Tie Li hurriedly jumped out of a few people to fight with them.

The people who drank in the Tieli tent were all generals with troops, not the same as the guards in charge of patrolling outside, and after a few rounds, the black-clothed men who surrounded them were all killed, and only one person was left to fight to the death. The remaining person was Bai Sang, the commander of the Huaiwu Escort Force, and he was still unflinching against several rebel generals alone.

During the fierce battle, a rebel general suddenly shouted at Tie Li: "The assassin's martial arts are not low, the general should quickly go to the last general's camp to take refuge, just in case!" ”

He didn't say it's okay, as soon as he said this, Bai Sang immediately determined that the person behind him who was frightened and turned pale was the target of this operation, Tie Li, and hurriedly twisted his lips and reminded his companions. When the black-clothed men around heard this, they all left their opponents and rushed to this side.

Bai Sang didn't want to get too entangled with those rebels, so he jumped in front of Tie Li and slashed with a sword. Helplessly, there were too many guards around Tie Li, and after a while, he was surrounded by several people. As the rebels gradually recovered from the panic, Bai Sang slowly fell to the downside, and there were more and more flaws. Bai Sang was also red-eyed, and forced the intestines back into his stomach with his hands, holding the wound with one hand to prevent it from slipping out again, and continuing to fight as a trapped beast with the other.

However, after all, the two fists are difficult to defeat the four hands, and seeing that Bai Sang will not be able to support the death of the enemy, Sun Rong led the elites of Huaiwu to kill in time. The situation on both sides was immediately reversed, and the rebels fell one by one, while Bai Sang was helped aside and bandaged by his companions. Looking at Tie Li again, he was already sitting on the ground at this moment, with a large piece of wet under his buttocks, and he was scared to pee. Sun Rong came to Tie Li and looked down at the trembling rebel general in front of him, only to see that his lips trembled and he couldn't squeeze out a word when he wanted to ask for Rao Ke, he just trembled vigorously, and didn't talk nonsense with him, and cut off his head with a knife in his hand.

Carrying Tie Li's head, Sun Rong came to the outside of the tent and shouted: "Tie Li is dead!" Tie Li is dead! The rebels followed the sound and saw Tie Li's bloody head, and in an instant they lost their fighting spirit, and they all dropped their weapons and fled.

After killing Tie Li and bandaging his wounds a little, Sun Rong immediately ordered his subordinates to bring torches and light Tie Li's tent. One after another, they brought in all other combustible materials and threw them into the tent, including the corpses of the dead rebels. The fire gradually turned stronger, illuminating the entire valley as bright as day.

Sun Rong was in a stirring mood, and excitedly said to the people in Huaiwu: "Brothers, God will not abandon my Huaiwu, the thief Tie Li has already been awarded the ......" Before he finished speaking, everyone in Huaiwu was already hugging in twos and threes and shouting long live. When everyone shouted tired, Sun Rong continued: "At this time, the news of Tie Li's death is estimated to have spread throughout the rebel camps, and while they are panicking, the people who can still move will follow me to kill them all, so as to prevent future troubles!" ”

In the county seat of Huai County, Yuan Rui and others and the county commander Qiu Wu also had no sleep, and the only 5,000 troops in Huai County had been assembled at the gate of the city for a long time. Suddenly, a fire broke out in the direction of the mountain, and the entire sky was reflected red. Yuan Rui looked at Qiu Wu excitedly, and Qiu Wu also nodded with tears in his eyes: "It's time to wait!" It's finally here! ”

It turned out that Sun Rong and Yuan Rui agreed that day to let Yuan Rui find the county commander of Huaixian County to ask for martial arts, pretend to surrender to paralyze Tie Li, and at the same time Huaiwu was responsible for carrying out the raid. If it succeeds, it will set fire to its tent, and as long as Huaixian sees the fire, it will pour out of the city and sweep away Yu Kou with Huaiwu before and after. Because Yuan Rui has the special identity of King Changle, Qiu Wu will definitely cooperate, otherwise even if Sun Rong goes out in person, it is still unknown whether he can see Qiu Wu.

Most of the rebels here joined the Tie Li army along the way, and the will to rebel was not strong, and now not only lost the commander, but even a cadre of generals and generals also followed Tie Li to his big tent to die, although the number is large, but no one commands and no fighting spirit, how can it withstand the Huaiwu Huaixian coalition army that has long held its breath like a wolf and a tiger attack, throwing away the armor and only knowing to run for their lives, and forgetting to resist at all. Sun Rong and the others finally cut off their heads and their hands were weak.

In Huaiwu, the celebration banquet. Everyone's tense nerves were finally released, and they drank happily. Since the outbreak of the rebellion, this battle was the first major victory for the official army, and it was a big victory with fewer victories. Yuan Rui and the others were also diluted by this big victory, and their original dissatisfaction with the internal struggle in Huaiwu was diluted, and they drank bitterly with Sun Rong, Yang Lan and others while catching up with the past.

When he was having fun, Cui Mingyou suddenly jumped out: "Everyone, it's rare that everyone is so happy today, how about offering a sword dance to cheer you up?" When everyone heard that in addition to wine and meat, there were also singing and dancing appreciation, and they applauded. I saw Cui Mingyou holding a sword in his hand, jumping into the middle of the arena and singing at the same time. The singing was majestic and vigorous, and the scene was suddenly silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Cui Mingyou in the field. With the rhythm of the song, I saw him sometimes lunge and stab, sometimes back to pick up, and everyone was fascinated, I didn't expect a man to dance so attractively. At the end of the song, thunderous applause rang out.

Sun Rong was drunk at the moment, and said in his heart that this is Huaiwu, there is no reason for outsiders to take the limelight, his fingers moved back and forth along the faces of the people in Huaiwu, and finally fell on Sun Xiu's face: "Sun Xiu, I heard that you are also good at sword dancing, why don't you give everyone a section too?" Let the guests also see the dancing of our Huaiwu. ”

Sun Xiu's expression was slightly embarrassed: "I dance like a village woman in the countryside, and I don't dare to offer ugliness and smile generously." ”

Sun Rong didn't give up: "The village women also have the fun of the village women, don't you spoil the fun, or do you think that the gentlemen here are not worthy of appreciating your dance skills at all?" ”

Speaking of this, even if Sun Xiu is reluctant, he has to dance. It turns out that Sun Xiu is not modest, his dance skills are indeed average, especially under the backdrop of Cui Mingyou, it looks mediocre, so that when he left, the applause was sparse. And Sun Rong was pale, and he shot the case: "Sun Xiu! You're deliberately dismissing me like this, aren't you? ”

Seeing that a feast was about to be dissolved, a person hurried in from outside, said a few words in Sun Rong's ear and hurried out. Sun Rong suddenly turned his anger into joy, and announced loudly: "Yuan Gongzi, everyone, great joy! The imperial court sent Hu Dun, the general of the Northern Command, to lead an army of 500,000 to quell the rebellion, and has now entered the city of Yanzhou! ”

Everyone congratulated each other when they heard the news, completely forgetting the unpleasantness just now. Although this time it was a big victory, it was impossible for the same technique to work twice in a row, and if the rebels marched south next time, Huaiwu would still be unable to escape after all. At this moment, I heard that the imperial court sent heavy troops to quell the rebellion, and finally I was relieved, and finally I didn't have to worry about when the rebels would come back.

Yuan Rui and the four of them secretly said in their hearts, this Hu Dun and the general Hu Shen, Luoyang Ling Hu Yuan, and Bingzhou Assassin Shi Hu Mo are all the younger brothers of the Queen Mother, because he is mediocre and idle, he has been idle among the Hu family brothers. The post of general of Zhengbei has been vacant for a long time, and now it is granted to Hu Dun, which shows that the queen mother is still nepotistic at a critical moment.

Yuan Rui saw that the time was ripe, so he proposed his resignation to Sun Rong: "Second Brother Sun, Tie Li has been defeated, the imperial court has sent troops to quell the rebellion, Huaiwu is finally safe, and it's time for me to leave!" ”

Sun Rong burped and said: "Yuan Gongzi rarely comes here, and they all say that there are friends from afar, and they are also drunk!" Sun has not yet exhausted the friendship of the landlord and got drunk with Yuan Gongzi, why not stay for two more days? ”

Yang Lan also lost no time in persuading: "Yes! Yuan Gongzi has been running all the way, and he hasn't had a good conversation with Xiaoqian! ”

Yuan Rui was waiting for her to say this, and slowly came to Sun Qian: "That's true, so I dare to ask Second Brother Sun to allow Xiao Qian to go to Luoyang with me." ”

Unexpectedly, Yuan Rui spoke so directly in public, and Sun Qian suddenly blushed with shame. was about to open his mouth to symbolically refuse, but Yuan Rui leaned into her ear and whispered: "Your second brother is too vicious, and he is too harsh on his subordinates, I am worried that something will happen to him sooner or later, I don't worry about you staying in Huaiwu, come with me!" ”

When Sun Qian heard this, she couldn't help but think of discordant scenes such as Xu Deng's death with a broken throat, Sun Baohu's suicide in prison, and Sun Xiu's unprovoked humiliation, so she said to Sun Rong in a firm tone: "I hope the second brother will be successful!" ”

What can Sun Rong do, he secretly said in his heart that you are a prince who asks me for someone, can I not agree, but he said: "Xiaoqian has found a home, I am very happy for my brother!" ”
